Chris Waugh @ChrisDHWaugh · 24m Almost a first chance on goal for Mitrovic. Norwood swings in a corner, Mitrovic jumps to try & meet it, but he’s adamant he’s being held back by a #nffc defender. Nothing given though – Fulham going a bit more direct & willing to put the ball in the air since Mitrovic came on

Huge penalty shout as Mitrovic goes down in the area when he appears to be being held back by the Forest defence. #ffc fans scream for it, but the referee is not interested. Mitrovic has made an impact – Fulham look more dangerous since his introdcution. #nufc

Mitrovic heads wide from a corner, then spends the next 20 seconds making his feelings known to Forest defender Worrall… Fulham then take the lead through Piazon.

The positive early impact Mitrovic had has waned some what, with #ffc now struggling to break #nffc down. Haven’t been many crosses into the box for Mitrovic to attack in last 10 mins, but he is still trying to make things happen for his side

OFF THE LINE! So unlucky from Mitrovic. He rises highest from a corner to power a header at goal, which #nffc clear off the line. #ffc fans respond with chants of “Mitro, Mitro” #nufc

Chris Waugh @ChrisDHWaugh · 45s Less than 3 mins left at Craven Cottage for Mitrovic to find a debut goal off the bench. He’s been lively since he came on. Colback looks shattered for Forest, though he has played well – & it’s unsurprising given ihis lack of football this season

Chris Waugh @ChrisDHWaugh · 1m Full-time. Fulham win 2-0. Mitrovic didn’t get a debut goal off the bench but he put in a promising display & had a header cleared off the line. This looks like a good move for him, with Fulham whipping loads of balls in to the box. Colback had a decent #nffc debut too #nufc

Comment #13 Is Tsunki on crack or something.. the shit that comes out of his mouth”

Ha ha highly original old chap! Although for it to work we have to first figure out your logic for concluding faecal regurgitation is a consequence of recreational drug use. I wouldn’t know. i defer to your expertise and experience in such things.

Tom Barclay @TomBarclay_ 4m Mitrovic, his shirt covered in mud, heads over to the Fulham fans to applaud them. He looked like he bloody loved being out playing again. Could be a season-changing signing

Perhaps I’m being optomistic but at worst I think we’ll get 38 points and I think that should just about do it. Don’t forget there’s still a lot of “Dog eat Dog” games to come up. Never in my memory can I recall the top division being as tight as it is this year!

Beer He’s at Blackpool. Started behind the strikers for a few games and went on a goal scoring run scoring worldies every other week. Moved back to cm since though so goals have dried till today. Played well for them, he’s better than league 1 and should have been sent to championship in January.

Dan @footballindex14 18m Mitrovic offers so much more than fonte in that second half even off the ball winning duals and testing defenders with making the odd good run. Will only improve with more game time

Scott Cushnir @jaguarmada 20m Thought Betts came up big when needed, Sess, StefJo and KMac were incredible and Mitrovic looked good as well (what a header). And happy that Mitrovic decided not to go after Worrall (looked like the thought crossed his mind). #COYW

Ad @ABronsSmith 40m Mitrovic has been great since he came on, really looked a handful and nearly got his debut goal. Give it a few weeks so he’s fully fit, and we’ve got the missing jigsaw piece. Exciting times for #FFC @marcusbettss double save just as important as a goal!

Looking likey that wba and huddersfield will be two of the three, so if we can win tomorrow and beat wba, southampton and huddersfield then we should be nearly there. But just makes you wonder though were we would be if we had someone who could consistently put the ball in the back of the net doesn’t it. Palace and some of our other away games will be good games for us, wont have to worry about breaking them down as they will come at us allowing us to counter quickly. If we can transition quicky and move the ball through the phases and interchange with clever movement then weve got a chance. No silly fouls or free kicks, be compact and tight and hopfully slim can hit the ground running and get the goals we need. Hopefully thats just enough. HWTL

health update

My latest bone scans and CAT scans were completed this week and I met with my oncologist Dr. Dhruva to go over the results.

The stage four cancer remains stabilized and hasn't spread over the last six months.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in early 2017 after being in remission for six years.

There is no cure for stage 4 cancer - but there are treatments which attempt to prolong life.

I am upbeat with the results and remain in awe of the doctors and nurses at the Rex Cancer Center here in Raleigh, North Carolina

It's truly humbling to see how inspiring they are with their patients.

Kacper Tylenda Website Designer

One of our avid readers Kacper Tylenda from Poland was the person who came in during April, 2017 and redesigned this web-site from top to bottom.

We think he did a fantastic job to modernize the site with the roll-out on Thursday May 18th surprisingly smooth.

I am so appreciative of his help.

Kacper is starting his own business in web-design so if you want a website built or know of people who want to redo their sites in any way – here’s his portfolio.

It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, falling in love.
